Songs in Our Heart # 25

A Day in the Life (The Beatles) (Written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney; released 1 June 1967) [The first pop anthem, weird and wonderful. 50 years on, it is still singular, with unique structure, drug-and-pop-culture-drenched imaginings, the mix of classical and pop instrumentation, and that final strident, ominous, lingering chord of E major, using the great Daniel Barenboim’s grand piano.]
